Ice cream display freezer with precise temperature regulation (-18°C to -22°C) can maintain the best texture of ice cream, ice crystal size is controlled at 20-50 microns, while the standard freezer (-12°C to -15°C) 100-200 micron ice crystals, texture is improved by 60%. A single Japanese 7-Eleven store proved that, following the use of Hoshizaki C102BA (power 1.8kW), the volume of ice cream sales throughout the week was enhanced by 34%, due to 70% (glass transmitrate ≥92%) improvement in visibility of display surfaces, and customers’ waiting time was prolonged by 25 seconds. According to a 2023 Nielsen study, ice cream case coolers with LED ring lighting, such as the Taylor C709, increase product color saturation by 40%, increase strawberry ice cream purchase conversion rate from 18% to 27%, and reduce melt loss rate (from 9% to 3%).
Energy-saving and cost-effective, variable frequency compressor ice cream display freezers, such as the ElectroFreeze AF-200, consume 1.5 KWH of electricity less per day than standard models, equating to more than $800 in cost savings on electricity bills per year. By applying Gram C90 (Energy efficiency class A+++), Baskin-Robbins increased average ice cream production in stores by 120 liters per month, saved 22% of energy costs, and enhanced gross margins by 15%. From a compliance perspective, F-Gas-compliant ice cream display freezer such as Carpigiani LB552 with R290 refrigerant reduce their carbon footprint by 55%, avoid the potential environmental charge of €2,000 per unit annually, and have a rate of refrigerant leakage of less than 0.1 g/year.
Space efficiency and customized design drive competitiveness, vertical multi-layer ice cream freezer display (such as Coldelite Smart 3.0) is only 60 cm in depth, yet provides 50% SKU capacity with six adjustable shelves (holding 30 kg/layer). Italian business GROM utilizes customized curved glass freezer (1.5 meter radius), which increases 2 times the area of display and adds 2.3 euros to the customer cost. Intelligent capabilities maximize operations even further, such as the Scotsman SCE145 (built-in RFID inventory tracking system), which tracks inventory in real time and issues replenishment notices, reducing stock shortages by 65% and reducing manual inventory time from 4 hours/week to 20 minutes/week.
Anti-interference capability offers all-weather working capability, and anti-fog mechanism of frozen dessert display refrigerator (such as electric heating glass in Panasonic NR-F562, with power 25 watts/m) reduces the probability of fog on the glass from 75% compared to normal ones to less than 5%, while ensuring more than 95% rate of visibility of goods on peak passenger transport times (i.e., during holidays). In hot and humid condition environments (such as the Southeast Asia market), commercial ice cream display freezers (such as Haier LC-330L) operate through IPX4 waterproof rating and wide temperature range of -30°C to +45°C, and annual failure rate of less than 0.5 times, and equipment life is extended to 10 years (industry standard is 7 years). Retailers that spend on ice cream display freezers enjoy a 14-month average return period, 21% higher in profit growth terms than non-equipped retailers, affirming their necessity for business efficiency and customer experience improvement, as identified by Frost & Sullivan’s 2024 study.
